Yup new rule should be that everybody is allowed to pit under SC and you go back to your position when the SC started after you pit. So you cannot lose position under SC. Then everybody gets a free pit.
Does seem unfair to work up a 10 second advantage and have it taken away like that
Didn’t he have the option but didn’t take it.
Dubman would have lost position for sure.
The FIA have disregarded their own rules regarding lapped cars under a safety car for the sake of entertainment.
If they wanted a race at the end, they should have red flagged the race so Hamilton could stick on a new set of tyres and at least make it a fair race.
Matt Agreed.
But Merc/Lewis taking a bet on hards for 40 laps tho, risky, and they paid for it.
Matt Trying to engineer a penalty shoot out. It’s bent as fuck
rhouses That’s why the chose not to do it. Not allowing all the lapped cars to overtake is a different argument.

I thought he seemed very comfortable, even after 40 laps.
Mercedes have been absolutely shafted here.
alistair a penalty shoot out where one team has their shoe laces ties together.
Protest lodged this could drag on.
benson Swings and roundabouts with Hamilton tbf though
It certainly creates drama for next season weather its over turned or not, so sky will be happy about that.
Matt Lewis got dicked over no doubt. Tyres got cold behind the safety car. There was no way he was going to take that last lap in those conditions, and it doesn’t speak for the car.
That being said, Merc should pay for keeping Bottas in that car.
I love how the Brit commentators were rooting for it to end with racing, until the reality of it happening meant Lewis wasn’t going to win. They sounded shattered. Lol.
rhouses I didn’t get that impression at all.
rhouses I didnt get that impression at all, if anything they all wanted Hamiliton to lose becuase he’s boring.
rhouses Merc should pay for keeping Bottas in that car.
Can’t disagree with that. Very fast driver, Terrible racer.
Who gives a fuck? I’m delighted that Hamilton lost.
Along_the_Wire racist imo
Well what an ending, as controversial as ever, not really sure what to say, could go either way here, no Hamilton fan but he was robbed for sure
Makes great viewing for the Netflix doc I forgot about that.
